Quick Transmigration: Leisure

Success in the imperial examination brings great joy and pride.

The second son of the Xia family was appointed by the emperor and ranked ninth among the newly appointed Jinshi (successful candidates in the highest imperial examinations).

Since his father and brothers were all in the capital, the house in Fengzhou was only briefly bustling with activity.

The guests, carrying their return gifts, enthusiastically praised Xia Yibai everywhere. In particular, the three places of Heyang Village, Huashan Town, and Fengzhou City, they even spontaneously held banquets to celebrate the happy occasion without Xia Yibai's presence.

It is said that the Tian family was constantly invited to feasts by other families in the village.

Not for any other reason than to share in the joy, reminisce about my childhood friendship with Xia Yibai, and evaluate my own unique perspective.

Some of his fellow students were arranged by their teachers to go to the capital overnight to watch the newly appointed scholars parade through the streets.

This serves as both motivation and honor.

It wasn't until April that the Xia family gradually returned to peace.

Xia Youmi also sent a letter to the capital to congratulate them, telling them to enjoy their trip and not to rush back.

This move was exactly what Fu Zhao wanted.

He originally wanted to take the Xia family on a trip, but if they were in a hurry to return to Fengzhou, they wouldn't have the chance to spend time with Tian'er.

So Mr. and Mrs. Tian Chaoyu decided to stay.

On the one hand, they haven't had a chance to relax in a long time.

On the other hand, they hope to wait for Xia Liangjun's case from many years ago to be overturned.

And so, as May began, the Xia family elders still did not return home.

Some people just couldn't sit still.

......

"How about trying my cooking?" Chao Shuang smiled and brought out a plate of bright red dishes, placing it on the round table.

Beside the table were Xia Youqing fish Lingling, as well as Chaosi and Xia Youmi.

The two families started eating together again.

The incident stemmed from a falling out between Chao Si and her former classmate, and it seemed her relationship with Xia Youmi next door was about to thaw. At this time, Grandpa Chao suggested returning to his hometown alone to pay respects to his ancestors, leaving the siblings at home, and even hinted that they could come over for a meal.

Under Xia Youqing's enthusiasm, they happily ate like this three times a day.

See here,

Xia Youmi even made room for a kitchen apprentice, giving it to the Chao siblings, who then diligently studied the skills.

In recent years, Chao Shuang has gradually learned to loosen his burdens and delegate authority to cultivate young successors.

She also encountered a new romance.

That person was an apprentice at a martial arts school, although his status and position were mismatched.

But his views were quite novel; he had no intention of relying on his lover for support. He even made a bold statement that if his wealth did not surpass that of the Chao family, he would not marry Chao Shuang and would be willing to serve her for the rest of his life.

If he achieves great success in the future, I will marry him with a grand wedding procession.

When Chao Shuang said this, her eyes were full of smiles and admiration, leaving everyone present stunned.

Yu Lingling, in particular, suddenly felt a sense of pressure.

There's no one there.

Even marrying into a family with such an imposing presence!

As for Chao Si, it was as if his skull had been opened, and he learned the art of balancing tension and relaxation.

Xia Youmi didn't know how he interpreted the meaning of "kumquat".

It seems like I'm deliberately creating a sense of distance for her, showing myself off from time to time, but then quickly withdrawing.

They unconsciously drifted into a pleasant conversation, but then suddenly disappeared into something that seemed off-putting.

It leaves people with endless imagination.

Not saying anything might cause Xia Youmi distress and internal conflict.

But it really made her laugh.

Xia Youmi quickly took a sip of tea to cover up her embarrassment, then picked up the dish that Chao Shuang had just learned to cook, and without even smelling it, put it directly into her mouth.

"Well!"

"how?"

Xia Youmi covered her mouth with an exaggerated expression, then put down her chopsticks with her other hand and raised her hand to indicate that the dish was absolutely amazing.

This made everyone at the round table laugh.

"Hiss—" Xia Youqing carefully covered her stomach and leaned against Yu Lingling.

After Xia Youmi expressed her opinion, everyone was no longer wary of Chao Shuang's new dishes and ate them with great joy.

After a while

A series of coughs and choking sounds.

"Ouch, sis, this is way too spicy and sour!" Chao Si's mouth looked like it had been scalded, so red it was almost bleeding.

"Cough." Yu Lingling carefully avoided Xia Youqing and coughed from behind.

As for Chao Shuang, he was already overwhelmed by his own dish and didn't know what to do.

"Tsk tsk, it smells so good! Sister Shuang, you're almost a master of this cuisine." Only Xia Youqing at the round table was happy, picking at the delicious-looking dish with rice again and again.

"I was wondering why my wife complained that my cooking skills had deteriorated so much these past few days. It turns out her tastes have changed." Yu Lingling began to reflect on herself. None of the people present had ever served a pregnant woman before.

No matter how much written knowledge one acquires, there will inevitably be omissions.

"It's not your fault. I wasn't like this a few months ago either. Otherwise, Mother would have told you to change the cuisine long ago." Xia Youqing comforted her husband's low spirits, making everyone else's teeth ache.

"Tuk-tuk-"

"Miss, we have a guest visiting from the front hall." The doorman suddenly knocked, startling everyone at the table.

It's rare for someone to visit without prior notice at dinner time.

Seeing this, Yu Lingling stepped forward, intending to go and meet them himself.

Tell them to keep eating.

"Oh dear! I was just worried about whether you were eating well."

"Mother, I'm here."

Before long, voices could be heard outside the door. Xia Youmi quickly helped Xia Youqing up and went to greet them.

"Mother, you've arrived."

"No need for formalities, Mother, look at you, you look so well." The person who came was Yu Lingling's mother, and the servant behind her was carrying large and small bags.

When they were led into the hall for tea, they realized that the Yu family had learned of the letter that the Xia family had sent to Tian Dinglan.

Madam Yu was worried that the Xia family, with only a few younger members, wouldn't be able to properly care for Xia Youqing, who was becoming a mother for the first time. So she entrusted all the household affairs to her daughter-in-law and packed her bags to come and take care of Xia Youqing.

His words were full of self-satisfaction that he finally had a chance to show off, and that he was more efficient than Tian Chaoyu.

After all, Tian Chaoyu probably hadn't been exposed to these things for many years. In the past, she was always worried but never concerned. She was far more experienced than someone who had been a mother-in-law and grandmother.

Mrs. Fish settled down there.

Since she came to this family.

The eldest brother-in-law, Yu Lingling, was visibly starting to look haggard.

In the past, Tian Chaoyu rarely disciplined him. She hired several experienced midwives from outside to teach him, and then she didn't interfere much.

As long as Xia Youqing's health doesn't suffer from any problems.

She entrusted her emotional needs to Yu Lingling, and occasionally a few younger sisters would keep her company and offer guidance.

However, Mrs. Fish is different; she has her own insights and habits in every aspect of her life.

Although she doesn't criticize Xia Youqing, she doesn't force anyone to follow her views.

However, he caught Yu Lingling and gave him a thorough scolding.

From their daily lives to their nutritional balance, everything has been completely transformed.

Often, Yu Lingling would feel mentally disoriented.

Why do midwives and mothers have conflicting theories? He didn't know what to do.

At last,

Xia Youmi, who had been watching the drama unfold with Xia Youqing, finally couldn't resist offering some advice.

There is no absolute truth.

However, it's from the mother's perspective, prioritizing her health above all else.

Another approach focuses on the healthy development of the fetus and reduces the risk of growth abnormalities.

Thus, their needs conflict.

Throughout the ages,

Becoming a mother inevitably involves a lot of sacrifices.

It's not a matter of convention, because if you have this function, you should take on it effortlessly.
